Is there any reason to not use a hyper detailed graphic EQ curve like the ones on Auto EQ for Equalizer APO? (alien.top)

I know it can create a bit of latency but you can get so damn close to Harman. Why not use this as a tool? There's a parametric eq option but it doesn't get as exact...

There are those who are "purists" and deviating from how the headphone was tuned by the manufacturer is going against the point of listening to the headphone they created. That said, I'm not one that finds the harman tuning cater to my preference so I adjust my EQ differently than what Auto EQ has recommended. However, AutoEQ does have the baseline starting point that I work with when using EQ.
